Question Posted Tuesday June 6 2006, 10:38 pm

2. If your not pregnant then thats good. If so you NEED to tell them. Believe me, they would much rather hear it from you than find out by your stomach getting bigger.
3. If you dont want to tell them to their face there are many other options such as a letter explaining your thoughts and feelings on it all.

BUT just don't get an abortion, because it's not the baby's fault you and your boyfriend made a stupid mistake that's gonna steer your whole life.

So go to your doctor first and they will tell you for certain, then you can think about what to do next.
if you are, then talk to your doctor about your options and tell your parents/guardian (whoever you live with or feel closest to in your family).

Think of it this way, you are eventually going to have to tell them. Because eventually, they will find out. But first of all, you have to consider this: Do you want to keep the baby? If the answer is yes, than tell him. If the answer is no, than there are many options you can take. Abortion, adoption, anything. Just think about what you want, & than I will get back to you ;)

she was flaring masd bcause my mother got pregnant at a young age when she lived with them- but eventually everythin was ok. until this morning- we got into a big argument and shetold me im on my own- dr.s appointments and all. im kind of in the dark- but this is my child's health and i will do anything in the world for it. youve just gotta stay sstrong, and do anythin in the best interest of your child. but remmeber to first find out if you are pregnant. if you have anything- anything at all to talk about- im here for ya. my s/n is mikelly4039. good luck, and i hpe to heasr from you soon.

First though, you need to get a pregnancy test at walmart or a drugstore. Read the directions and do what they say. IF you get a positive result that says you are pregnant, then you tell parents and grandparents.

Because if they find out when you actually HAVE the baby, it will be much worse. I doubt they will actually disown you, seeing as though you might have a baby on the way and you are so young.
The next best thing you can do is not have sex until your married. Why? Because you don't need to be having that kind of unprotected sex. You should have known the risks before you even did it. If you are pregnant, your blood is on your own head, and no one elses.
Although, if your boyfriend is willing to help you, I applaud him for that. I think most guys would try and run if that happened. So some kudos to him if he willing to stand by you.
You need to tell them, and you need to have both families there and tell them both at once and let them know everything. You MIGHT be pregnant, so their fear isn't confirmed yet.
I hope I helped and next time, remember to just not have sex. It isn't worth the worry or stress at such a young age, and a baby doesn't need to happen so young.
